More about this scene
In 1897 the vicar employed district visitors to serve the growing congregation, estimated at 1,200 people with 240 regular communicants. In 1959 the congregation had shrunk to around 11. Since this picture was taken the trees around the church have grown, and it cannot be seen from this tree by the brook.
